Swap sunvisor and climate control
Does anyone know if you can swap out the standard sun visor to the home link one and also if the same can be done with the manual climate control to automatic one on a 2018 f150 xlt ?

For home link, there is nothing about checking wires for voltage during diag, I also do not see it mentioned anywhere in the wiring diagrams.
This would lead me to believe there is no wiring to the vehicle and that this is a radio control similar to a TPMS sensor with a built in button cell for a power source. I could be wrong but I would think that you could connect a home link visor and it should work.
For climate control, you cannot swap from a practical point of view. The auto climate control has different driver and pass side is a extra blend door actuator.
In theory to swap you would have to remove the dash, install a auto evac ac case, take apart the dash, replace a module entire wiring harness, replace the climate control module, replace the climate control interface module, add some extra interior air temp sensors, and other things that I am missing.
